Harunobu Kasai

Harunobu Kasai (died 1591) was a Date retainer from Miyagi Province, who rebelled in 1591 in what became the Kasai-Osaki Uprising, hoping to restore Masamune Date's rule over Iwate Province and stop the stripping of possessions from peasants. He was killed by the government forces that arrived to quash the rebellion.
